[Myanmar Enacts Legislation to Crack Down on Fraud: Maximum Sentence of Life Imprisonment for Cryptocurrency Scams]
BlockBeats News, July 28: On Tuesday, Myanmar's parliament passed a law allowing the death penalty for individuals who coerce others into engaging in online fraud through violence or illegal detention. According to the draft bill released in May this year, if such abusive actions result in the victim's death, 'the death penalty shall be imposed.' The new law also stipulates that individuals operating online fraud parks or engaging in 'digital currency scams (cryptocurrency scams)' can face a maximum sentence of life imprisonment. Meanwhile, perpetrators of violent coercion or illegal detention may be sentenced to 10 years to life imprisonment. [Original Link]
